Samplitude Pro X3 offers musicians, sound engineers and producers a professional virtual studio environment for music production. Configure Samplitude for each different stage of your project with the new mixer layouts.

Recording Talent
Samplitude Pro X3 delivers the highest level of audio quality, even in complex recording sessions. Arrange audio and MIDI data on a total of 999 tracks. With up to 256 physical inputs and outputs, working on large projects is no problem at all. Use common audio formats from 16-bit to 32-bit floating point as well as sample rates up to 384 kHz.

Sound Neutral
Samplitude offers full bit transparency. The consistent use of floating point calculations ensures that the sound retains the desired nuances, even after extensive digital processing. This means transparency in the sound, neutrality and retention of transience and spatiality.

Take Composer
The Take Composer clearly displays all the recordings of a composition. This feature offers a specially optimized cutting tool to combine each element in the context of the entire arrangement creating the perfect end result.

Hybrid Audio Engine
The hybrid audio engine includes a combination of a high-performance engine and full latency compensation. The Low Latency Engine reduces response times when calculating real-time effects and enables accurate Live Monitoring at lower latencies. The integrated High Performance Engine provides for highly efficient system utilization. This in turn allows for sophisticated effects, software instruments and other plug-ins to be added to Samplitude Pro X3.

Multi-Core Support
Thanks to the ongoing improvements in CPU performance, DAWs can be operated completely independent of external DSP hardware. Multi-core support in Samplitude Pro X3 offers you the option to scale your studio setup according to its intended use and thus achieve optimum system performance.

Real Time Pitch Shift/Time Stretch
Celemony is both pioneer and market leader when it comes to pitch manipulation. Make the most of this top plug-in in Samplitude.

Editing Area
Discover a work environment that suits you. Thanks to the innovative docking concept, Samplitude Pro X3 offers a completely customizable program interface. Drag & drop, reposition and resize central software elements as well as toolbars.

Mixer Layouts
Several skins are included for customizing the design of the mixing console. Select one of the new layouts and modify the width and height of channels.

Zplane Algorithm
Use the latest zplane algorithm, élastiquePro v3, for time stretching and pitch shifting. This algorithm uses the latest findings from signal processing theory and combines these with psycho-acoustic models. The result is a complex tool for professional audio editing that preserves transients on a very small number of artifacts, even when heavy manipulation is applied. Maintain natural sound characteristics with time stretching and pitch shifting processes in Samplitude Pro X3.

Track-Level Special Editing
Remove unwanted sounds, like coughing or clapping, without audibly affecting the original signal. Spectral editing enables convenient editing at the track level enabling you to make corrections directly in the arrangement, even without activating the spectral display. Using a spectrogram, unwanted noises are quickly identified according to their color representation and removed – it’s ideal for short, clear noises.

Pitch Correction for Vocals & Instruments
Elastic allows you to not only modify the pitch from monophonic instruments and correct out of tune notes in vocal recordings, but also change entire melodies and adjust base frequencies. You can also create harmonized voices, a choir or background vocals in a matter of clicks.
Object-based editing in Samplitude Pro X3 enables you to modify individual words or syllables independently of the vocal track. These object settings can be transferred to several tracks, which is one way of simplifying editing when it comes to larger arrangements.

Comping
After a series of takes you can combine the best elements to create the perfect sequence. The Take Composer clearly displays all the recordings of a passage. This lets you compare all takes within the context of the complete arrangement and splice them together with the special modified cutting tool.

Tighten Up
Remember that vinyl from your favorite band with the amazing drum groove? Easily extract rhythms from audio and MIDI files and turn them into groove templates in Samplitude Pro X3. Then at your next drum recording just select the preset and apply your new template to achieve a tight drum sound.

Drum Replacement
Exchange elements from a live drum recording with takes from another recording or completely replace them with digital sounds. This way you can combine the natural sound of a snare with a fat sample – without affecting the original rhythm of the drummer.

MIDI Editor
The MIDI editor integrates different editors, views, ranges, and tools. A piano roll, drum editor, score editor, event list and controller editor are all available. You also have complete access to the VST instruments used and you can also specifically set and change any parameter, such as velocity, sustain, and other effects.

Object Editing
In addition to classic track-related editing options, Samplitude Pro X3 also features object-level editing. The options are so extensive that it's even possible to route objects to aux and Surround buses. Make changes to object settings in real time. From fades to pitch editing, edits are non-destructive and are calculated during playback.

Custom Workspaces
You can customize the arrangement, composition and display of visualizations, the file manager and the transport controls. Concentrate on what matters: The toolbar can be adjusted to fit various work flows in just a few clicks.

Independence Sampler
The Independence Sampler Workstation is a collection of sample instruments for professional film music, electronic music productions, sound design and live performances. Samplitude Pro X3 includes more than 12 GB of content. Samplitude Pro X3 Suite offers an impressive 70 GB premium sound database, including drums, percussion, acoustic, bass and electric guitars, pop wind instruments, saxophones, synthesizers, a complete symphony orchestra and many more instruments.

Orange Vocoder ME
Create experimental sounds or modulate an entire arrangement. Edit vocal recordings and also virtual instruments using the vocoder. You'll always have the right sound ready, thanks to various presets.

Virtual Instruments

Concert Grand: This concert grand is impressive with its large dynamic range and detailed, authentic sound.

Urban Drums: This drum machine, with its 8-bit camouflage look, was destined for urban music productions. Impressive presets for hip hop & dubstep, as well as dedicated settings options for parameters such as bit crush and distortion, bring the language of the street to your drum tracks.

String Ensemble: This orchestral string instrument introduces stylish accents to classical music productions. The String Ensemble guarantees an authentic sound – but it can also be used to create dance productions, soundtracks and pop arrangements, thanks to various features such as the noise controller, editable play styles (tremolo, legato, pizzicato, etc.) and electronic distortion.

MIDI Velocity Dynamics: "Velocity Dynamics" is a real-time effect for MIDI data which allows you to edit the attack dynamics of the MIDI notes. Adjust the MIDI velocity to the connected synthesizer by compressing or expanding the velocity strength of the selected event.

MIDI Editor: The MIDI editor integrates different editors, views, ranges, and tools. For example, a piano roll, drum editor, score editor, controller editor (e.g. velocity, MIDI volume, etc.), and an event list are all available. You can also specifically set and change any parameter such as velocity, sustain, and other effects. MIDI quantization is also possible without any additional steps. The beginning of notes, note length and pitch are all precisely displayed in the piano roll. You can copy, move, lengthen, shorten and play back all notes here.

Drum Editor: The Drum Editor is an alternative version of the piano roll, specifically for programming drum parts. Transfer note settings to other channel strips and quantize individual elements or assign them a new (MIDI) output channel. The editor can be operated in two different modes:
The matrix mode displays notes with standard parameters such as the beginning of the note, note length and pitch.
The cell mode allows you to adjust the width of notes and define a view quantize grid per instrument.

Music Notation: From idea to finished score: Music notation in Samplitude Pro X3 displays MIDI data as notes in real time. When you edit the piano roll, all changes are displayed right in the score. And vice versa, edits to notes in the score are transferred to the MIDI editor. Individual notations can be selected by clicking on them, and you can also edit pitch, velocity and length in the parameters. When your composition is finished, you can easily print the data as sheet music.

Screen Keyboard: The screen keyboard is optimized for touch control and contains a MIDI chord/arpeggio feature.
